Avient Corporation highlights sustainable innovations at NPE 2024, including Nymax™ REC Recycled Nylon Formulations, Versaflex™ HC BIO BT218 TPEs, ColorMatrix™ Capture™ Oxygen Scavenger, and Cesa™ Non-PFAS Process Aid for Extrusion, exemplifying the company’s commitment to delivering advanced sustainable solutions.   Cesa™ Unify™ A4R Polyolefin Compatibilizer: also a finalist for Product Technology Innovation of the Year for sustainable packaging at the Plastics Recycling Show Europe (PRSE) 2024, this innovative additive enables the use of recycled polyolefins by creating a homogenous polymer mixture, bridging the gap between virgin and recycled polymers, promoting circularity and sustainability – winner will be announced during PRSE 2024 in Amsterdam, June 19-20, 2024  Understanding Carbon Footprint: Strategies for designers, processors, and OEMs to help their customers be more eco-conscious during an entire product life cycle, from material selection to end-of-life considerations • Regulatory Navigation: Insights on navigating environmental standards, including PFAS and other chemicals, will be shared to help manufacturers stay compliant and competitive

Not only does it improve the recyclability and quality of PET packaging, but it also reduces risk relative to regulatory compliance and migration of the active AA scavenging component and non-intentionally added substance (NIAS) species often associated with other types of AA scavengers. Cesa™ Unify™ A4R Polyolefin Compatibilizer: submitted in collaboration with Avient’s customer PreZero, a recycler, and its converter, Jelenia Plast, this innovative compatibilizer additive was developed jointly to boost the use of recycled polyolefins, showcasing how a value chain collaboration can lead to success. In 2023, Avient’s Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Color Prediction Service and Cesa™ Nox A4R Additives for Recycling were both featured in the Product Technology Innovation of the Year category, with the Color Prediction Service winning the overall award.   

Other highlights from Avient at the show include: Additives including Cesa™ Nox A4R polyolefin antioxidant technology and Cesa™ Unify™ A4R polyolefin compatibilizer, both of which can enhance recycling and enable greater use of recycled materials to support a more circular economy  

New PTFE-free and non-halogen Cesa™ Flame Retardant Additives can help producers of polycarbonate E&E applications prepare for possible future PFAS restrictions   Avient’s new Cesa™ Flame Retardant Additives for polycarbonate are formulated without PTFE, which is typically used as an anti-drip agent in conventional flame-retardant polycarbonate. Avient provides these flame-retardant additives in the form of concentrates, allowing producers to combine them with color and other additives to meet performance requirements.
